Title: Corkscrew with integral intelligent thermometer
Inventor: HARRIS DEBRA FOGEL
IPC: G01K7/00
Filed: 2004-10-01
Abstract: An intelligent corkscrew device which determines the temperature of the bottle and informs the consumer as to what type of wine is suitable for that temperature. In a preferred embodiment, the corkscrew provides a temperature readout. Alternative embodiments provide entertainment features such as voice or other audio indications related to the temperature. Still other embodiments include visual indication such as lamps which indicate what type of wine would be proper for the temperature of the bottle being measured. The corkscrew uses thermal measurement of the exterior of the wine bottle to measure the temperature. The measurement is made by a temperature sensing device on the end of the lever arm. Alternatively, an infrared temperature sensor can be used to measure the contents of a bottle without coming in contact with the bottle. Specific infrared frequencies are used to penetrate the class used in the bottle to allow measurement of the liquid inside.

Title: Air harness turbine & jet propulsion
Inventor: MORROS JOSE RAMON
IPC: F03D1/04
Filed: 2006-05-02
Abstract: The funnel is a horizontally positioned cylinder, with a centrally located cone, the diameter base of said cone is smaller than that of the cylinder, creating an air passage between the inner side of the cylinder nd the outside perimeter of the cone. Placed as spokes on a wheel, there are partitions/gables, which extend to the cone bottom, in such location, they curve/bend at, perhaps, 90 degrees. I  could call the partitions/gables: DEFLECTORS, since they redirect the wind, in to the turbine blades, in the most advantageous direction.     The turbine consists of a circular sheet base, (diameter equal to the funnel's exterior cylinder), a hub, centered with the funnel base, and a number of "concave" blades attached, edge wise, to the sheet base and, end wise, spokes like, to the axle, hence, every blade creates an air pocket. The spend air exits centrifugally between the blades, creating jet propulsion.

Abstract: A coherent laser radar or lidar device (2; 20; 84; 90) for measuring wind speed is described that comprises a transmitter for transmitting a beam of light to a remote probe volume (6; 54), a receiver for detecting back- scattered light and an analyser for calculating wind velocity at the remote probe volume from the Doppler shift in frequency of the detected back- scattered light. The analyser is arranged to monitor for the presence of, and/or to ensure the calculated wind speed is corrected for, any Doppler frequency components of the detected back-scattered light that arise from ba ck- scatter off cloud located at a range greater than the range of the remote probe volume. It is described how the lidar (2; 20; 84; 90) may be scanned a nd wind velocity components calculated by fitting the scanned line of sight velocity values to a predetermined function. Furthermore, it is outlined how an initial fit may be performed to determine which points are to be used in this calculation. The incorporation of a back scatter profiling means, such as ceilometer (82), is also described. A wind turbine (902) incorporating such a device (90) is also described.

Title: System for correcting error in radio communication, responsive to error frequency
Inventor: OMAR SALIM
IPC: H04W24/08
Filed: 2006-11-02
Abstract: Errors of e.g database synchrony between a radio-connected mobile-station and a server can be especially troublesome if continued and repeated, and can quickly deplete resources in the mobile-station. This problem is addressed by keeping an error-event-count in the server; when the count exceeds a threshold, the server signals the mobile to immediately transmit the recent-activity-log in the mobile, i.e the log in the mobile in which are recorded the detailed elements relating to assembling and transmitting the data packet in which the error was detected. Using the information in the recent-activity-log, the server can institute de-bugging strategies, etc, to correct the problem. The threshold is in two stages; above the initial threshold, the mobile-station is signalled to increase the level of detail as recorded in the recent-activity-logs (if the mobile is able to do so), and the actual transmission of the log only takes place above the main threshold.

Abstract: A therapeutic treatment device for treating colds sores and the like. The device includes a housing configured to be hand held, and having an annular pad at one end thereof configured to engage and area of the body of the user. A  heat source is maintained adjacent the pad. A controller, in the form of a programmable chip or the like, allows for the heat source to be energized for a particular period of time, shutting off automatically. After a predetermined quiescent period of time has expired, the device signals the user that the heat source can be energized again, with the controller then maintaing the activation of the heat source for a second preselected period of time. The cycle continues until the treatment is complete. A treatment actuator communicates with the controller to enable the controller to process through the treatment sequence.    The treatment activator may be specifically tailored to any of various treatments, including the treatment for a cold sore, an insect bite, a bee sting, a spider bite, or the like.
